More than 300 megawatts of large, cargo container-sized sodium-beta batteries are running in the United States, Japan and Europe, according to Dupont Energy Consulting. They often store electricity generated by rows of solar panels and wind turbines. Electricity is generated when electrons flow between the battery’s electrodes.

In 2030, McKinsey estimates that there may be as many as 48 million EVs plugging into the US power grid, which means that utility providers are already preparing for the increased load. A BES system is a solution for businesses that want to store energy for later use. Here’s what battery storage means for you.

It occurred in the wake of the California electricity crisis of 2000 and 2001, when mismanaged deregulation, market manipulation, and environmental catastrophe combined to unhinge the power grid. Some observers thought V2G could prevent the kinds of price spikes and rolling blackouts then plaguing the Golden State.

This is, after all, how all the energy stored in wood, coal, oil, and natural gas originally got here: It was transmitted 150 million kilometers through space as electromagnetic waves—sunlight—most of it millions of years ago. Reducing the need to transport fuel, batteries, or other forms of stored energy will have far-reaching consequences.

Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV) are similar to BEVs in that they have an electric-only powertrain, but they store energy differently. FCEVs store hydrogen gas in a tank rather than charging a battery. The fuel cell’s electricity then powers an electric motor, which drives the vehicle like a BEV.
